Shawn,
For some reason they (Holley) are not showing the 472 cube version, but there
is one. I forget the HP rating that Chrysler gives it, but it about 550 as I
recall.
If you are considering buying one, the statistics show a lot fewer problems
(QC) with the 472 version than either of the other two. And shop around a bit
before you buy, ... You can get a decent break on them.

Hi All,
If you have any dates for car shows, etc., that you wish to have entered
on the 2003 Forward Look Network calendar, please email them to me
directly as soon as possible.
I've got most of the big shows already covered, but I especially need
dates for mopar-specific shows, and shows outside of the U.S.
Thanks!
-Dave

Pick up a copy of the 2002 Mopar Performance catalogue. It lists all the
variations of Hemi crate engines as well as the V10 Viper crate engine, the
RB wedge versions, and the small blocks. There are stats listed for all
variations. Keep in mind though that buying right from Chrysler can be very
pricey.......if there is a reputeable builder offering a Hemi crate engine
you may save some bucks and be able to customize the engine to be exactly
what you need.
Have a great weekend everyone. Ryan

Subject: 57 speedometer?
Hi Bill,
Yes, at least the '57-58 speedometers had some sort of rubbery gray gasket between the plastic face and the housing of the speedo. It turns into gray black goo and herdens, especially in warmer climates. Scrape it all away, then set it back in with some clear silicone and remove any excess.
Offhand I don't recall if the 4gauge cluster also had one for sure, but I think it did. It got less sun in the side window so was not as much of a problem.

in trying to clean and polish my dashboard and components, i ended up with a
little problem with the plastic face of the speedometer ending up loose and
wiggley.
apparently the last owner put some kind of calking (that looked like hell)
to keep it from vibrating...and when i cleaned it all up it was loose as a
goose.
is there suspose to be a gasket of some sort in there? in the other gauges
also?

This past weekend, Gil Cuningham and I attended the 45th annual Birthplace of
Speed show in Ormond Beach, FL. Friday night was the GasLight Parade. I
followed Gil in the parade and we kept hearing "Wow! 2 Chrysler 300's!" It
was great! There was even a 300C convertible in the parade but I wasn't able
to find the owner to get the VIN.
Sat we were in the antique car show. There were over 100 cars there
including an immaculate Duesenburg and I mean immaculate! The owner drove
the car from New Smyrna Beach to Ormond Beach along I-95 going 100 mph.
There were T-Birds, Model A's & T's, Kaisers, Nash Metropolitans, Ford,
Chevys. You name it and it probably was there. It was really great to see 2
300H's parked right next to each other at a show like this. Gil and I both
took first place in our classes and I took Best of Show out of all the
MOPARS. All in all a really great show.

The same material was on the 55/56 Chryslers also. Luckily it will come off
the glass lens with a razor blade and you can sometimes get by without
complete disassembly to clean it up.

NAPA Has an O-ring kit with a very small dia. o-ring material. If I remember
correctly you can get in several different diameters. You cut off what you
need, any length, and make your own O-rings. I think it would work well for
a gasket replacement if you have your dash all apart like I do. I got one
of these a few years back when I took mine all apart for painting. Can't lay
hands on it right now to give more details.

If you have the lens off it will also come off with warm water and mild
soap. It takes awhile, but you won't accidentally scratch the lens. You can
then used plastic polish to really make it look great!
